Abhinav Vittala Portfolio

Hey! That's me.

I'm Abhinav (25) and I enjoy designing products that make complex systems easier to understand. Over the last two years I've worked across AI tools, enterprise software and SaaS products, partnering closely with engineers and product teams to turn rough ideas into production-ready experiences. Outside work you'll probably find me producing music, following Formula 1 or planning my next trip.

How I got here..

April, 2023

Bachelors of Architecture

2018 - 2023
Architecture taught me how to think in systems before I ever opened Figma. I learned to balance user needs, technical constraints and business realities while designing spaces that had to function, not just look good. Graduating as a Gold Medalist 🥇 was rewarding, but I realised I was more interested in solving digital problems than designing buildings. That curiosity eventually led me to UI/UX design.

Bachelors of Architecture

June 2023

Intern - University of Rome Tor Vergata

June - July 2023 (2 months)
Working in Rome introduced me to Universal Design and accessibility at a completely different scale. It changed the way I think about users; not as an average person, but as people with different abilities, contexts and needs. Designing for inclusion became something I carried into every product afterwards.

Freelance UI UX Designer

Jan - Aug 2024 (7 months)
Before joining any design team, I spent time doing UI/UX courses and learning Figma for 6 months, after which I started freelancing on branding, visual identities and landing pages. It sharpened my visual communication, taught me how to work directly with clients, and helped me understand that good interfaces aren't just attractive; they communicate trust and intent.

Product Designer - Hummingbird Web Solutions

Aug 2024 - Jan 2026 (1.5 years)
This was where I truly became a product focused designer. I worked across SaaS products, AI features, consumer applications and internal tools, collaborating closely with developers and stakeholders. More importantly, I learned to ask better questions, defend design decisions, and think beyond individual screens toward complete product experiences. I was fortunate enough to be awarded Employee of the Quarter a few times, and was promoted to Senior Designer within an year for my performance and leadership.

Product Designer - Datakrew

Feb - Aug 2026 (6 month Contract)
At Datakrew, I moved into enterprise software, designing an end-to-end EV fleet management platform used to monitor hundreds of connected vehicles. My role quickly grew beyond interface design into defining workflows, identifying product gaps, resolving operational edge cases and building consistent patterns across dozens of interconnected modules. It was a project based contract which taught me a lot about operational design.

My Life Outside Design

Music Production

I've been producing music since 2016. Music taught me iteration, patience and attention to tiny details; and it is something that genuinely excites me. During COVID, i started offering freelance services on Fiverr, and i quickly became a Top Rated Seller on the platform, the only Indian music producer to do so at that time.

Interacting with over 300+ clients from all over the world taught me a lot about client facing oppurtunities and helped mt develop my business and communication skills. Now i produce music for fun!
